Stopped in Room 4 this visit, bloody freezing cold, and someone left a door open to the outside balcony, so spent all night with a disturbed sleep, as the door was banging away al night in the wind, and the cold filled the hallway and rooms. Shame as last stay was 5 stars

Friendly welcome, Room 1, nice and well decorated, comfy bed, and a good selection of pillow sizes, shower was a rainfall, with good pressure and coverage. Restaurant and Bar raised area also for eating or drinking , so accommodating to a single traveller, it was lovely. I stay away over 40 weeks a year, and this is my number one for this area . 5 stars from me

I had stayed in the Ribchester before. The rooms are lovely. Loved the little touches, fresh milk,bottles of orange juice and water. The only minus was, the sheets weren't cotton. Overall, a lovely place to stay.
